A wardrobe staple! I only wish I had found the Levi’s cinch waist shorts years ago. I’m wearing a size 26 - they do cinch in about 1/2 an inch on each side and their cotton blend does stretch through out the day Also I don’t take off my gorjana jewlery and I’m so impressed with their customer service! Well worth the splurge I’ve had these pieces for 3+ years now
